Blue and green seem to be the colors that I am being drawn to

lately. It’s funny how my preference for color seems  to keep

changing. Last year, I loved bright reds and oranges. Can you

believe that?

Do you have a preference for a certain color?

This is an interesting pattern but it is the color that is

drawing me in.

Here is the pieced border. The quilt doesn’t look flat because

I had it bunched up on the floor. It is quite large so I would not

have been able to lay it all out flat.

Again, I love the colors of this quilt. Maybe because I

am also working on my Oceans BOM.

I am hoping to have it all pieced within the next 2 weeks so I can

begin adding embellishments. Wish me luck.

The borer area is pretty cool. The pieced border

mimics the piecing in the centre of the quilt but in a

different way.

The backing shows the quilting nicely. Nathalie wanted

an all over design and chose “Quirky.” The design

resembles one of the prints on the front of the quilt.

I love pieced backings. They add more interest to the back

and use up more fabric as well. Nathalie chose a light

aqua polyester thread for the top and the backing.

Can I brag a little here? My son drew this picture for his

art class, in school.

Mothers can be pretty biased when it comes to their kids’ abilities

but I really do think he is talented when it comes to drawing.

A close up of the baseball. Can I remind you that this is

drawn freehand and with a pencil. Looks pretty

realistic, doesn’t it?

Hope you have a good week.

Can I challenge you to find something amazing about

each of your own children today?

See you next week.
